They are normally a long way up, circling round and round like a spec in the sky but I have seen them fold up and go into a dive on a few occasions, the amount of pigeons on the docks near my house provide a never ending year round food source , think there are 5/6 nesting pairs on the docks alone plus another half dozen pairs around the city that I no of ??

I do love a peregrine myself and am fortunate to have a lot near me, if I watch the sky from my garden I will see one or two a week circling overhead and know of loads of nest sites within a 10 mile radius ??

Here you go mate I,ve done a set of orange dub dub tubes and a set of tbg for you there is a ball bearing in the end of the tubes so just push it through the hole in the fork and push the bb back in as I,ve done it and should hold secure there are some ties and string to attach the flat bands like in the video I put up, and a couple of little twig forks for the boys to shoot some chick peas round the place, don’t no how long the little red bands will last so have done a bundle of spares, loads of vids on utube if you need to no more or drop me a pm hopefully get you and the boys started mate A

Similar story mate, my old mans mate would take me fishing or bird watching if I stayed out of trouble, sadly I forgot my part of the bargain but it sewed the seeds for the man I am today and am eternally grateful

Getting regular sparrow hawk hits on the bird table at the moment and as I’m sat here writing this he,s just hit the french doors, great to see so many bops doing so well especially as I live in a rather industrial area ?

Lovely bank holiday weekend good weather and actually think I have a full 2 days to do nothing which makes a huge change so time to get the grub sorted, to start, my all time fav a stuffed and rolled belly of pork, also have a good pile of ribs after boning out, less than £20 and two home made knifes will keep whoever comes through the door fed for the next 24/48 hrs then the chicken,burgers and sausages can get involved, so what we all doing on the Barbie this weekend let’s have it ??

Sorry no picture but I saw my second ever red kite yesterday flying over the city of Bristol, seems they are making there way down the m4 corridor simular to the ring necks parakeets I normally start seeing kites up toward Swindon and no of parakeets as far south as Gloucester, ??

It’s to do with the fact the thc is the bit that gets you stoned, it’s not a case of wanting to go to criminals but the cbd oil that everyone is on is a modern placebo in most cases, I think epileptics and cancer patients need the thc content, if your not willing to talk to someone on the dark side you may as well go to Tesco and by a litre of pure hemp oil probably has more cbd than the diluted shite being sold in Holland and Barrett for extortionate prices ??

You need the stuff that’s not legal basically mate with as high a thc count as possible, talk to your local weed dealer sure they,ll no someone who makes it ??

Melonistic/ black leopards seem to be about 75 Sandy brown puma 15, 5 percent lynx and 5 miscellaneous, these figures are pretty much a constant year on year, though would say sandy browns seem to be on the increase slightly, the areas to look at are places that were considered wilderness,s back in the 70s as this is were many animals were dumped, hence Bodmin,exmoor,Dartmoor,forest of dean, Scotland etc all have a population that have bred and naturalised from all the previous releases, I can’t say for every area as I’m in Bristol so look at my own area but from the things I find I would say

It’s a tall order but I’m thinking yarde is going to do the Russian myself ??

The only way you can protect an animal is to have it recognised as a legitimate species, so proving its excistance is the first step to doing that, the last clear footage I saw was shown to us by a couple of very well healed gentlemen who had a large estate in Hereford, they were invited to attend a meeting at the uni that we have, they sat through and watched asked a few questions about the risks to themselves and stock etc then just before they left pulled out a mobile phone and showed a Chrystal clear film of a puma that they and there staff had all seen on there estate saying as long as i

If your settled not hard to set them up on the bank either, my daughter had a purpose built one on her boat and it was like being in a tumble drier when the wind was howling , my current set up is a small panel, found in a skip with the regulator, attached to 2 110 amp leisure battery’s it runs 6 led lights two water pumps for a shower and a cigarette lighter socket for charging phone or iPad if I double up on the battery’s and use bigger panels I will run through a 3000kw inverter to take it back up to 240 and that should run most household appliances like I said worth learning about as it c

Sadly wind generation on a boat is not an option as the turbine causes vibration through the boat, but yes agreed, I,ve always said if I ever came up on the lottery I,d like to buy an old water mill and live completely off grid as a waterwheel keeps spinning day and night rain or shine and with a big enough battery bank to store it would generate some massive power, shame we are only interested in profits as I think we could all be at least 50percent self generating if the powers that be encouraged it ?

I have seen crystal clear footage mate just no one who’s willing to share it, I also no of several hunts that do flush them one more often than others but they just want things left alone as they are, without the nutters that come with telling people what’s on your land, but I can assure you they are here and it’s only a matter of time before the full truth comes out I hope I,m the one who gets the footage but even if I do it will probably be called an escapee or someone’s pet or something else, not being believed is just par for the course but it don’t bother me as I just like being outdoor

Don’t know if your referring to the fat boy-scout or the primark Paul Weller but sadly I,m neither mate, most of these films offer very little really and I wouldn’t put myself forward to go on film without some solid evidence, though I did do a podcast on the subject recently, which I still haven’t heard myself yet ?

I use kilner jars I think they are called with a rubber seal and a wire clip that pulls the lid tight rubber does perish but they work well for a few years
